Ok, so there are clich?d talks about 'how so and so actor is quote good' or 'how we bonded on the sets' or 'how Rajasthan was one of the characters' etc. 'Making of the film' is an engaging watch. The film comes in a single DVD with the film's duration being 137 minutes and approximately 50 minutes of added features. It also features some glowing reviews that the film received. Manorama Six Feet Under comes in a thick paper case with a proud mention of the film being 'Most Critically Acclaimed Film of the Year' and 'Winner of Best Film Award at MIAAC Film Festival - New York'. Still, like any other good thriller, the beauty of Manorama Six Feet Under also lies in the fact that the evidence is right in front of you from the very beginning of the film with enough hints being dropped which are hardly caught by an audience.Īnd when the secret unfolds, one tends to get into a collective gasp - 'Ok, so this was it'! Here too, Abhay explores the 'hows', 'whens' and the 'whys' at the risk of his life and the ugly truth does leave a bad taste in his month - literally! The small town laziness and built up of characters had to be brought to fore but from an audience point of view, it is expected that they would want the drama to unfold quicker. Set in a small town Lakhot (somewhere in Rajasthan), the film is a jigsaw puzzle with pieces like corruption, voyeurism, extra marital temptations and lies fitting together to create an image which is totally unpredictable.Īnything that doesn't quite work for the film? The pace of the film becomes slow at a couple of instances in the first half with the beginning of second half being a complete letdown. Result was that the film came, impressed the critics, got high ratings and by the time news reached the audience, it was time for Manorama Six Feet Under to announce adieu in one week flat. Half hearted publicity and poor show timing selection at the multiplexes pulled down the response to the movie. The reason for the disaster is poor promotional strategy, market placement and lack of thought in identifying the target audience! Yet this suspense thriller lost out at the box office. This film had everything going in it's favour, be it an original storytelling, setting in (true) noir genre, career best performance by Abhay Deol, imaginative background score, class cinematography which could match international standards and a shocking ending. The reason for this is that the film was a disaster at the box office, hence turning out to be an antithesis to the intrinsic qualities it boasted of.
